Threats, Attacks, and Vulnerabilities Practice Question

Question

A real-world workflow requires a practical decision for the CompTIA Security+ involving MFA in Threats, Attacks, and Vulnerabilities. Which response best applies the concept? (Item 114)

Answer choices

1. A. Choose an answer that removes accountability from the responsible professional.
2. B. The best answer is to choose the control or response that reduces risk while preserving confidentiality, integrity, availability, and accountable security operations for the MFA scenario.
3. C. Escalate only after taking irreversible action without reviewing the facts.
4. D. Treat all similar terms as interchangeable without checking the scenario context.

Correct Answer

B. The best answer is to choose the control or response that reduces risk while preserving confidentiality, integrity, availability, and accountable security operations for the MFA scenario.

Explanation

The correct answer is B because MFA is tested by asking candidates to choose the control or response that reduces risk while preserving confidentiality, integrity, availability, and accountable security operations. The distractors reflect common exam mistakes: ignoring context, using informal shortcuts, skipping verification, or applying a rule from the wrong domain.
